A History and Critique of Methodological Naturalism

Apologetics

“Dr. Joseph Okello's presentation on the history and critique of naturalism reflects the clarity of his thinking and the convincing logic of his argument that an unqualified naturalism fails to embrace the larger and more rational comprehension of nature. In our postmodern culture, with its expectation of a more inclusive and relational interpretation of life, this book shows that naturalism fails to account for a more inclusive vision of reality and its larger relational context.”

Human Significance in Theology and the Natural Sciences

Science & Faith

“"This is a fascinating work on the interface between theology and science . . . The author's remarkable breadth of knowledge, clarity of thought, and lucid writing style enable him to help the reader to understand the coherence between science and faith. This scholarly work is an irenic and well-informed presentation of the Christian faith and will become one of the primary textbooks in theology, philosophy of religion, and philosophy of science.”

Trinity After Pentecost

Theology

“Atkinson's call for a pneumatological Trinitarianism is reminiscent of Basil of Caesarea, who, among the early church fathers, warned against failing to appreciate the full deity of the Spirit as the third person of the Trinity. Atkinson shows that without an adequate understanding of the Holy Spirit given to the church on the day of Pentecost, one's theology of God is defective and one's worship of the triune God is diminished. This book is lucidly written and a joy to read.”

True Christianity

Theology

“Russell Frazier has made a significant contribution in this volume on the thought of John Fletcher. . . . He has rightly shown that Fletcher's theology should not simply be interpreted in the light of later interpreters, who often did not provide a proper balance to Fletcher's ideas. Wesleyan scholarship will in due course of time come to appreciate this research so finely done by Frazier.”
